Tammy Tierney, vice president of communications and employee development at American City Business Journals, has been named editor of Bizwomen.com, an ACBJ website.

Tierney has been with ACBJ since 1991.

She also worked as a reporter at the Kansas City Star, the Denver Post, and the Hartford Courant, and did a short stint practicing law. She’s recently been writing a column for Bizwomen, ACBJ’s website for professional women.

In a post on the website, Tierney writes, “Bizwomen connects the dots between working women all over America. With the resources of 43 American City Business Journals newsrooms and a staff headquartered in Charlotte, Bizwomen reports who’s moving up, who’s moving out, and what your next move should be. Bizwomen aims to be a must-read resource for women who care deeply about their careers, their companies and their communities.
